Tunisia arrests 12 over deadly migrant shipwreck

According to a statement by the coastguard, Tunisian authorities have arrested 12 people
including a smuggler involved in organizing a recent crossing that killed 15 migrants after their boat capsized.  Earlier this week, a boat said to be bearing some 60 migrants capsized off the coast of the southeastern island of Djerba. The coastguard had given an initial death toll of 12 passengers, all Tunisians and including children and a woman, before later revising it upwards to 15.
